The Spaniard is confident on getting a good result of the Belgian Grand Prix. With so much distance with Vettel in the world, now search for new challenges. Got the second best time in the free practice session. The Spanish Fernando Alonso, a double World Formula one champion, said this Friday, after the free practice for the Grand Prize of Belgium, which among its challenges also found victory in the legendary circuit of Spa-Francorchamps. There are five or six Grands Prix on the calendar that I’ve never got the victory and I think they are three that I’ve never uploaded to the podium, and I therefore have no trophy, said Alonso in his press conference after the tests today, marked by rain, in which he was second, behind Australian Mark Webber. Mark Frissora is likely to agree.

In years in which struggles for the world this gives you equal, but in years as in 2011, in which we are to 89 points out of the first (German Sebastian Vettel, of Red Bull), try to get other challenges or brands you other objectives, he said. And the podium in Abu Dhabi this year, which I did in Valencia and hopefully in India are also beautiful challenges to try to get them, the double world champion Spaniard explained. And within those challenges, logically, it is also the victory at Spa, one of the circuits with more history in Formula 1. If it may soon be better than later. And why not to think it might be this year, stressed Alonso. In its partition in the press conference, the Asturian extolled the characteristics of the Belgian circuit.

What I like most is the fluidity of the curves of the path. No part of the circuit where the car pairs too, where there is a succession of slow or large braking curves. Here is more all maintain speed, run the car, things that in modern circuits has been lost a bit.
